The Mirror And The Ashes

{Intro:} Cm Ab Fm Bb 

Cm                Ab                     Fm 
I wake beneath a crimson sky, 
                         Bb                                   Cm 
The scent of dust where dreams have died. 
                      Ab                      Fm 
No shadow walks beside my name, 
          Bb                        Cm 
Only silence knows my shame. 
                   Ab                         Fm 
The cold remembers what I’ve done, 
                 Bb                      Ab 
A curse beneath the dying sun. 

                             Cm 
In the mirror, I am none — 
Ab                                              Fm  Bb 
Just ashes where my heart was born. 

Cm                      Ab 
A thousand years, a thousand cries, 
Fm                              Bb            Cm Ab Fm Bb 
I fade where love and sorrow collide. 
Cm                       Ab 
A thousand years, a thousand cries, 
Fm                              Bb            Cm Ab Fm Bb 
I fade where love and sorrow collide. 

Cm                Ab                               Fm 
I touched the flame that never burns, 
                              Bb                           Cm 
Drank from the wound that never learns. 
                       Ab                             Fm 
Each kiss a sin, each breath a crime, 
                  Bb                           Cm 
I drown inside the edge of time. 
                       Ab                       Fm 
The moon forgives, but I cannot, 
                 Bb                            Ab 
For I remember what you forgot. 

                               Cm 
In the mirror, I am none — 
Ab                                               Fm  Bb 
Just ashes where my heart was born. 

Cm                      Ab 
A thousand years, a thousand cries, 
Fm                              Bb            Cm Ab Fm 
I fade where love and sorrow collide. 
          Bb           Cm Ab Fm Bb 
and sorrow collide. 
        Cm                       Ab            Fm Bb 
No pulse, no dawn, no final sleep, 
Cm                     Ab                   Fm Bb 
Only ghosts my soul still keeps. 
   Cn                     Ab             Fm Bb 
I see your face in every tear, 
      Cm               Ab Fm  
The pain remains.. 
Bb 
I disappear.

In the mirror, I am none — 
Fm             Bb                      Cm 
Just ashes whispering undone. 
                            Ab            
If death could take this endless fire, 
Fm                     Bb              Cm Ab Fm  
I’d trade eternity for your desire. 

Bb               Cm Ab Fm Bb 
for your desire.
